We divide 42167552 by 879
We're looking to find how many times 879 goes into 42167552.

Moving on to step 1:
879 can be fit into 4 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 4.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 0.0
The remainder is 4 after subtracting 0 from 4.
Append the next digit (2) from the dividend to 4 and continue with: 42 / 879

On to step 2:
879 can be fit into 42 0 times, resulting in a remainder of 42.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtracting 0 from 42 leaves us with 42.
Bring next digit (1) of the dividend behind the 42 and repeat the process: 421 / 879

Let's proceed to step 3:
The number 879 fits into 421 0 times, leaving a remainder of 421.
Record the quotient 0 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 0.0
Subtract 0 from 421 to get 421.
Include the next digit (6) from the dividend after 421, then repeat: 4216 / 879

Let's proceed to step 4:
When dividing 4216 by 879, we get 4 with a remainder of 700.
Use 4 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 4.0
The remainder is 700 after subtracting 3516 from 4216.
Take the next digit (7) from the dividend and append it to 700, then repeat: 7007 / 879

On to step 5:
879 can be fit into 7007 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 854.
The number 7 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 47.0
Subtract 6153 from 7007 to get 854.
Bring next digit (5) of the dividend behind the 854 and repeat the process: 8545 / 879

Let's proceed to step 6:
8545 divided by 879 is 9 with a remainder of 634.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 479.0
Subtracting 7911 from 8545 leaves us with 634.
Grab the next digit (5) from the dividend, add it to 634, then carry on: 6345 / 879

Going ahead to step 7:
The number 879 fits into 6345 7 times, leaving a remainder of 192.
The next digit of our result is 7. 
Result so far: 4797.0
Subtract 6153 from 6345 to get 192.
Include the next digit (2) from the dividend after 192, then repeat: 1922 / 879

Step 8:
The number 879 fits into 1922 2 times, leaving a remainder of 164.
The number 2 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 47972.0
If we take 1758 away from 1922, we end up with 164.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 1640, and continue the process.

Advancing to step 9:
The number 879 fits into 1640 1 times, leaving a remainder of 761.
Record the quotient 1 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 47972.1
The remainder is 761 after subtracting 879 from 1640.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 7610, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 10:
7610 divided by 879 is 8 with a remainder of 578.
Write down 8 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 47972.18
If we subtract 7032 from 7610, we get 578.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5780, and continue the process.

Step 11:
5780 divided by 879 is 6 with a remainder of 506.
Write down 6 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 47972.186
If we take 5274 away from 5780, we end up with 506.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5060, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 12:
When dividing 5060 by 879, we get 5 with a remainder of 665.
Use 5 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 47972.1865
Deduct 4395 from 5060 and we're left with 665.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 6650, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 13:
879 can be fit into 6650 7 times, resulting in a remainder of 497.
Write down 7 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 47972.18657
Subtracting 6153 from 6650 leaves us with 497.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4970, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 14:
4970 divided by 879 is 5 with a remainder of 575.
Put 5 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 47972.186575
If we take 4395 away from 4970, we end up with 575.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 5750, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 15:
879 goes into 5750 6 times with a remainder of 476.
Put 6 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 47972.1865756
The remainder is 476 after subtracting 5274 from 5750.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 4760, and continue the process.

Going ahead to step 16:
If we divide 4760 by 879, we get 5 and a remainder of 365.
The number 5 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 47972.18657565
The remainder is 365 after subtracting 4395 from 4760.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 3650, and continue the process.

The final outcome is 47972.18657565, with a leftover of 3.65e-07.
